American Express Aeroplan Cards Get Major Upgrade for Canadian Cardmembers

American Express is revamping its Aeroplan Card benefits for Canadians, set to debut on January 12, 2027. The changes will apply across consumer, small business, and corporate cards, building on the company's over two-decade partnership with Aeroplan.

The new benefits include a mix of travel savings, airport perks, lounge access, and additional ways to use Aeroplan points for frequent Air Canada travelers.

One of the headline changes is a new travel benefit on the American Express Aeroplan Reserve Card. Cardmembers can receive up to $100 a year toward Air Canada travel through their AC Wallet, plus 15% savings on Air Canada flight rewards when redeeming Aeroplan points.

The Reserve Card will also offer expanded lounge access, including access to a wider Worldwide Maple Leaf Lounge network, up to six complimentary Priority Pass lounge visits annually, and eight complimentary passes for select Aspire Amex lounges in Canada.
